M . W . G . M . M . M ., and there was a large gathering of the members of Grand Lodge and the subordinate Lodges . The minutes of the Summer Half-Yearl y and Movable Communications having bee : i read and confirmed , the Earl of Kintore announced that in consequence of certain action
he had taken in the Supreme Grand Chapter , Scotland , steps were on the eve of being taken which would bring that body into friendly communication with the Mark Grand Lodge , and that there might shortly be expected an interchange of representatives between the two Supreme
bodies . Lord Egerton of Tatton having been obligated , invested , and installed as D . G . Master , and having briefl y acknowledged the honour , the Report of the General Board was submitted and accepted . From this we learn that the total number of registered advancements to date is 19 , 387 ,
